Dear Subscribers,

Many water professionals asked if The Water Network can provide the value we expected originally from LinkedIn Water groups - i.e. to help share knowledge and discover business opportunities without ads or being spammed.
The answer is yes, we have been doing that now for the last six years. Keeping up with firsts, next month we roll out the first Ecosystem Communities on The Water Network each with its own business exchange, Q&A, learning center and job board. Since this takes a lot of resources to make sure that the quality is good, we can only do a few at a time.
If you have a need, let us know, we will announce the first Ecosystems in September!
Looking forward to your feedback,
Trudi Schifter
Founder & CEO
